killing me, and my relationships, and friendships. i don't know what happened with me and my boyfriend. we were going ok..

and i don't know what's going on.

we were supposed to hang out today. and.. THAT didn't happen. i don't like it when ppl make promises to me that they can't/don't end up keeping, becuase uh.. it just really gets me down.

like. a lot.

and..

uhm..

i'm so depressed, i am actualyl thinking of cutting. i am not thinking of killing myself. but i just want more attention. ugh. that sounds soo needy and desperate though.

but it is true.

i just want to lock myself in my room and cut.

i know how emo that sounds haha..
but it's soo true right now.
i really want someone to talk to who i can trust or confide in, and who will ACTUALLY HELP ME and not make things worse. like, my ex friends.. that is why we are not friends anymore. they would make everything seem ten times worse whenever i would want them to help.

ugh.. i just. feel..
lonely.
and like i should be cutting. i really want to. really bad. and i havent felt this way.. since a long time ago.. :(

please try not to resort to cutting, you sound like you don't want to which is good. try and stay on here for a little while and see if the urge passes...
i'll be here for a little while longer if you want to chat

It is frustrating and painful when some one devalues us. I understand. It is not about you honey. Do not cut okay? Just because someone was inconciderate.

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
